Serial IO basic documentation? I am just starting with using Arduino connected to proximity sensors for controlling my quartz av performance. Is there some basic information about the settings for correct data input from arduino to quartz? ie. the data bits, stop bits, break string etc. I have the sensor data coming into quartz, but the data values skip/jitter around a bit dropping to 0 randomly. In the Arduino serial monitor, the data is consistently good.. but in quartz the same data jumps around a bit.. anyone have any hints on this behaviour? thank you

I have this same problem, highly unreliable. Really hoping there's a solution!
how would you describe the problem you have?
when i hover the mouse over the incoming data in qc the data seems to almost 'dropout' every second or so.. like it's not getting a value, or it's skipping.. i wonder if it's something to do with the formatting of the data? i have the data fed through a structure index patch and then into the height of a cube, I wonder if i should be formatting the data differently in the arduino sketch.. I have some smoothing in the sketch, so the data coming out should be nice and stable. it's either formatting or something to do with the serial io plugin settings? but nothing i have done makes any difference currently.
Is anyone having any success with this patch at the moment?
thanks anyone :)
OK, iaian7 I have had success! I followed http://mansteri.com/2008/11/arduino-quartz-composer/ and downloaded his qtz and arduino code. I now have a stable arduino quartz connection :) If you have any troubles after looking at his example let me know and i'll give more details :) cheers
